While working on earlier pieces that dealt with images of movement, I became interested in the structure of the ships and airplanes that symbolize travel. After breaking down these machines to their basic components I noticed a similarity to the basic building block of animal and plant life, the cell. The simple elegant forms of multi-cell plants and animals seem a natural extension of earlier transportation forms.
This combination of machine and biologically inspired forms opens a greater freedom to explore shapes since nature seems to always be more imaginative in its choice of forms, connecting cells together in playful spirals, rings and zig-zags. The new organic forms retain the original streamlined feel through the use of smooth sleek surfaces and geometrically precise details.
The journey can now measured in terms of scale and evolution as well as distance.
